March 29- June 30

March/April
My cute boys

Brooklyn and Bry "Just dancing"

Playing in the sand (and his shirt says I love dirt...funny!)



Playing in his favorite hiding spot...

First time on the bounce house...


And the big kids come on too...



We had  cake for dinner (for real!) for our April Fools day meal!






And I gave the kids some trick fruit....I filled pineapple cans with candy.

And the kids decided to put their swimsuits on and jump in the bounce house and get wet...and the joke was on them because it was in the 40's and 50's that day...too cold to get wet outside kiddos!!


What happens when your 1 year old has older siblings that teach him naughty things like standing on top of the slide....

Curtis loves cake for dinner


Mom and Bry selfie

Bry couldn't just eat his starbursts he had to make a creation

The reason we went to Disneyland was so Brooklyn could perform with her performing group Choral Collection. Brooklyn did great!!This was a once in a lifetime kind of thing!

Brooklyn and her after beach selfies

Don't know why this blurry but you can tell what it says and why my kids loved it....

(It appears all pictures from May are in random messed up order, so no we didn't go to the park at home while we were in Disneyland....but we did go to the West Point park in May.)

And stand on the booster seats, cause that is super fun too (especially trying to get the water out of them afterward)


Father's Day treasures












Still loving the hose


And the sandbox




Trying to water the plants at Davis'





OK we pretty much lived in the pool for the entire month of June



In May after we got back from Disneyland, I was trying to get Bryson to put his light saber down and go to bed, and he finally said "OK, but in the morning the force will be awake..." then he thought for a second and added "The force awakens." Ha ha pretty clever for a 5 year old. When he woke up the next morning he said "The force is awake." Cute! 
Braden is so cute and says lots of words like "Brooktyn"  and "Bry" and "Why" ....and other things. He is adorable!!!
Brooklyn is a great helper and she started playing comp soccer for Utah Surf. 
We love all our kids! And we are all grateful to Curtis for all he does for our family.
